She also playfully addressed the child directly in the caption, adding, "Also hello girl baby Rory." The couple confirmed their daughter's full name as Havoc Moon Alva Culkin.

The Couple Shared Their Pregnancy News Earlier This Year
Arizmendi first revealed her pregnancy in January with a heartfelt Instagram post reflecting on the emotional state of the world and her excitement about becoming a mother.
"My feed (and brain) has been consumed with such negativity and pain in the world that I thought I'd bring some light by announcing how ridiculously excited we are to be living in Havoc's world in a few months," she wrote at the time.
The post included several personal moments from the pregnancy, including a sonogram image and photos of Culkin reading to Arizmendi's baby bump. After giving birth, she updated the caption to include another emotional message about their daughter. The cinematographer added:
"We love her. She rules us already."
Culkin, 36, and Arizmendi reportedly began dating in 2023. While the actor tends to keep his romantic life private, the pair occasionally shared glimpses of their relationship online throughout the pregnancy. Arizmendi is known for her work behind the camera on projects including "Succession" and "Swallow."
